Originally posted this in the SYS forum. Thought I was in this forum. Sorry!

Hello! I am new to the forums (and photography as a whole) and would love to receive ideas to improve. This pic was taken with the following:
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S5100
Exposure: 0.007 sec (1/140)
Aperture: f/3.1
Focal Length: 22.2 mm
ISO Speed: 100
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire



I edited extensively with Lightroom. Her face was covered with lunch!! I tried to clean that up and overall make the picture more appealling.

Any thoughts about this pic? Lighting and editing comments are especially welcome.

Very nice picture. Very cute girl. The lighting is very good. I had to look very well to see where you removed the lunch
I like the reflection in the eyes.
Good job!
